ARMA procedure to treat esophageal reflux

There are two methods that doctors use to perform this operation using gastrointestinal endoscopy.

  The first is to use a tri-angled knife (T-knife), where the doctor performs precise cauterization of the upper stomach wall tissue using this tool. This technique takes approximately 40 minutes to an hour.

  The second method relies on the use of argon gas to stimulate the transformation of the mucous membrane of the stomach wall into fibrous tissue. This is done by emitting electrical frequencies that lead to ionization of argon gas molecules, which contributes to transforming the mucous membrane into fibrous tissue. This method is easier and safer than using the T-knife method, and takes only 30 to 40 minutes.

  Arma treatment for esophageal reflux is an effective and safe procedure, and shows good results in recovering patients from this problem.

The suitability of this technique for the patient is determined by consulting the treating gastroenterologist and hepatologist.
